Instructions

Fry the onion/spring onions and chopped garlic in olive oil over a low heat until tender and sweet, but not browned - around 7 minutes. I keep the lid on the pan and stir occasionally.
Steam the broccoli (5 minutes).
Boil water and make the chicken stock with a good quality stock cube. Put the pistachios inside so they can soften.
Blend all ingredients until smooth in a high speed blender.
Season to taste with salt (if needed) and pepper.

If you do not have a steamer, boil a pot with 1-2 cm of water. Add the broccoli. This way, the majority of the broccoli will be steamed once the lid is on.
